Ambience Healthcare
Ambient AI scribe for clinicians — real-time notes, coding, CDI
Overview
Ambience Healthcare's ambient AI drafts clinical notes, orders, and billing codes in real time inside Epic and Cerner. A $243M Series C in July 2025 valued the company at $1.25B; Chart Awareness (Feb 2026) now reads a patient's full longitudinal record, not just the current visit.

ASEAN Perspective
Ambience Healthcare in Southeast Asia
Ambience Healthcare is currently a US-focused product with no confirmed deployments, regional data-residency infrastructure, or local sales presence in ASEAN or broader APAC as of mid-2026. The platform's CDI and coding modules are calibrated to US-specific frameworks (ICD-10-CM, CPT, CMS compliance), which limits direct applicability to healthcare systems operating under ICD-10-AM (Australia, Singapore, Malaysia) or ICD-10-BN without significant customisation. ASEAN health systems exploring ambient AI documentation should monitor Ambience for future international expansion while evaluating locally available alternatives in the interim.
Ambience is arguably the most clinically validated ambient-AI scribe on the market: independent testing put its ICD-10 coding accuracy 27% ahead of board-certified physicians, and health systems report roughly $13,000 in recovered revenue per clinician annually from better documentation integrity. A $243 million Series C in July 2025 — co-led by a16z and Oak HC/FT, with the OpenAI Startup Fund and Kleiner Perkins also participating — pushed its valuation to $1.25 billion and brought total funding past $345 million. Houston Methodist's reported 40% cut in documentation time and a KLAS/CHIME Trailblazer Award back the marketing claims with real deployments.
None of that helps a small clinic. Ambience is enterprise-only, prices nothing publicly (third-party estimates put it around $2,800–5,000 per provider a year), and implementation runs six to eighteen months with a dedicated EHR integration team required. It's built for US billing codes (ICD-10-CM, CPT) with no confirmed APAC deployments or data-residency options — a long-horizon bet outside North America.
What people say
A $243 million Series C in July 2025 pushed Ambience Healthcare's valuation to $1.25 billion — a signal that ambient AI scribing has moved well past the hype-cycle stage for at least one vendor. G2 reviewers back that up with a 4.7/5 score, and Ambience picked up a KLAS/CHIME Trailblazer Award along the way. Houston Methodist reports a 40% cut in physician documentation time; independent testing found the platform's ICD-10 coding beat board-certified physicians by 27%, translating to an estimated $13,000+ in recovered revenue per clinician per year through better clinical documentation integrity.
None of this is available to browse and buy. Ambience sells enterprise-only, doesn't publish prices (third-party estimates land around $2,800 to $5,000 per provider annually depending on which modules — AutoCDI, AutoAVS, AutoRefer — are bundled in), and implementation timelines run six to eighteen months with real IT lift on the buyer's side. That rules out solo practitioners and small clinics outright.
The platform integrates deeply with Epic and Cerner and now covers 100+ specialties across ambulatory, ED, and inpatient settings. Chart Awareness, launched February 2026, extends the AI beyond single-visit note-taking to reason over a patient's full history — prior notes, lab trends, imaging, medication changes. It's US-built for US billing codes, though: no confirmed deployments or data-residency options in APAC yet, so international health systems are watching from the sidelines rather than buying.
